The Walking Dead The Complete First Season


I've watched every episode of this show when it aired and loved it, and now that my girlfriend and I's anniversary was last week she hooked me up with the dvd. I love this show, it's an hour long zombie movie in each episode. The acting and gore, as well as effects, are top notch and done to perfection. But it does have it's down side for me, the first being that the season was so short that I feel there should have been alot of character developement that never happened. The only character who we see character developement from is Shane (played by Jon Bernthal) and he does a great job however.

The other downfall for me is the season finale. It was a good finale, don't get me wrong, but I feel that there should have been more of a bang for the ending. It ended as though it were just another episode and not a finale, finale's are supposed to hit hard and the ending of this finale just didn't cut it. Still a great show and I'm already counting the days 'til season 2. If you haven't watched this show then you're either living under a rock or zombies aren't your thing, but if you want to be entertained and watch a good quality show then check this out. Put it on your Netflix queue.

Overall I give this show 3 stars. For those of you living under a rock, check out the trailer.

  1. Absolutely agree. I've never read the comics but I'm thinking of doing so since I love the show so much.

  2. First, Happy Anniversary my friend.

    Second, I completely agree on all points! Though way to short, I still enjoyed this show! I heard (and don't quote me on this) that a second season is in the makings but the entire writing staff from season one was fired!

    Should be interesting!

  3. Really? Hmmm I hope they don't hire the wrong people and send this show down hill. It's too young to not be anything but epic at this point. I hope they improve with season 2.
